Ellicottville ready to ‘Rock Autism’ with second music fest Saturday By Kellen M. Quigley After a successful first event last year, there was no doubt in the minds of Max Muscato and the rest of the Rock Autism board members to bring the organization’s music festival back for 2019. The second annual Rock Autism Music Festival, which will feature six bands on Saturday at the Village Park on Fillmore Drive in Ellicottville, is the passion project of Muscato and Rock Autism, a not-for-profit organization that began in 2017. For the second year, Muscato said they decided to go with a different tactic, having the day be a little shorter with fewer acts, but featuring a world-wide known headliner. “We were fortunate enough to land Citizen Cope, who is coincidentally one of my all-time favorite artists,” Muscato said. “When he said yes, I was ecstatic. I freaked out.” The other bands set to play include Max Muscato featuring his brother Sonny Muscato, The Strictly Hip, Handsome Jack, Edalo & The Space, who are ready to rock for one epic cause. Proceeds benefit Rock Autism music workshops for youth on the spectrum and fine arts programs at People Inc, Autism Services of Western New York, The Summit Center and The Autism Center at Oishei Children’s Hospital. Muscato said with a bigger headliner, he’s hoping to see the overall production of the festival go up by providing more tents, port-o-johns and security. “Hopefully it doesn’t rain or pour, so we don’t have to have an emergency plan B so we don’t have to stage somewhere not on grass,” he said. After the planning and coordination that Muscato and the rest of the Rock Autism board members have done over

Plans progress for Ellicottville bicentennial By Deb Everts

Ellis III and John W. (Sam) Ellis, Jr. who were children of John Webster Ellis and Esther Harns Ellis.
Plans for the town of Ellicottville’s Bicentennial Celebration in 2020 are moving along and gradually taking shape. The last meeting was held Aug. 20 at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. Organizer Dawn Westfall said about a dozen people generally come to the meetings and 11 were in attendance, so they had a fairly good turnout. She said anybody can come and help with the planning. Westfall said the committee made a lot of progress at the meeting. They’ve been hammering out more details about sponsorship from local businesses which, she said, she’d never thought about before. “Several people from the core committee are representatives
of local businesses and restaurants such as The Gin Mill, Villaggio and Holiday Valley,” she said. Brian McFadden and Jessica Wallace from the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce and several members of the historical society including town historian Mary Elizabeth Dunbar and Ann Rothrock, a veteran of the Great Valley bicentennial planning committee, also attended. According to Westfall, they currently have three main events that are solid and definitely happening, which they have talked

Planning underway for Ellicottville Fall Festival, Oct. 12 and 13
As Ellicottville’s oldest and largest event, Fall Festival, scheduled for Oct. 12 and 13 this year, is a huge economic engine for the village and provides a major trickle-down effect. It benefits many not-forprofits along with our business community and our residents. Over $70,000 is generated in various donations from the festival events. The popularity provides an opportunity to showcase our area and its attractions, converting many to become repeat visitors and second homeowners. Organizers strive to provide a better-quality experience that will attract a demographic that truly wants to enjoy all the area has to offer.

ROCK AUTISM FEST
BICENTENNIAL
Continued from front page
the past several months, the one thing Muscato said he is looking forward to most is seeing his brother, who has autism, play drums again. “My favorite part of last year was when we played a cover of Led Zepplin’s ‘Moby Dick,’” Muscato explained. “My dad is my drummer, but so is my brother. When the drum solo started, myself and my bass player backed away and the light just poured down on my brother and my dad.” Muscato said his dad and Sonny battled back and forth before Sonny was given the opportunity to really show off what he could do. When the song ended, “everyone erupted and freaked out. It was the best,” Muscato said. “My dad and I always wanted to do a music festival down the road, but the reason we chose this whole autism movement is
because of my brother,” he said. “For a long time, he just wasn’t getting the help he needed.” After Sonny turned 18 and didn’t have the opportunities he wanted, Muscato said his brother became a drug addict and eventually landed in prison. He was hanging out with the wrong crowd and was shot by a corrections officer while in jail and almost died, Muscato said. “To this day, Sonny still has the bullet in his right glute,” he said. “It’s a reminder to him of how real it can get.” An acceptance call into a music therapy program never came, a program that the family hoped could help Sonny manage his mental health, Muscato said. However, this festival is one outlet for Sonny to show off his creativity and help those with autism. “We took off. We were doing show after show, fundraisers and then our music festival last year,” he said. “We were able to raise enough money and got our program rolling. It’s great.” For the second straight year, Muscato said he’s received overwhelming support from the Ellicottville community. “Every single person in Ellicottville supports what we’re doing. There are so many sponsors,” he added. “The general comradery of everybody is
Continued from front page
amazing. I’m so happy we moved (the festival) out there.” In addition to the music, Muscato said there will be between 30 and 40 vendors on-site throughout the day, with many local companies and organizations coming in with their Rock Autism themed food, beverages and more. There will be several Rock Autism tables with merchandise for sale to help support the cause. Muscato said he’s hoping for 1,200 to 1,500 people to come down throughout the day so they can raise a good amount of money and give to Rock Autism’s partners. “We’re here to let the parents know that there is hope when their kids get older,” he said. The music lineup includes: 4:30 to 5:15 p.m., Edalo & The Space 5:15 to 6:30 p.m., Handsome Jack 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., The Strictly Hip 8:00 to 9:15 p.m., Max Muscato 9:45 to 11 p.m., Citizen Cope The event also features and opening opener to the event, Muscato said, which is the group that won Rock Autism’s battle of the bands contest a few months ago. Gates open for the family-friendly event at 4 p.m. and music continues until 11. Tickets start at $25 and can be purchased at the gate day-of. Children under 12 are admitted free. Tickets are also available online by visiting RockAutism.org, where additional information is also available on the Rock Autism organization and its mission.

about from the start. The Winter Carnival will kick off the bicentennial celebration and is still set for March 14-15. Westfall said Holiday Valley has taken that event over, so they are working on those details. “When the time gets closer, we’ll talk more about manpower for that weekend. We’ve talked about having some displays with old pictures and having people there to talk about the history and answer questions,” she said. “I think their theme might be ‘the 1820s; or something like that. There are also some costume ideas and other things to make that the focal point of their weekend carnival.” The town’s birthday party celebration will take place on April 13 with a Day of Proclamation at the town center with a birthday cake and other refreshments. “Old Home Weekend” is solidly set for July 1719. Westfall said it’ll be a carnival weekend kind of a thing at the park in Eville. She said Old Home Weekend will coincide with Alumni Weekend. “We chose that weekend so we’d have more people coming home anyway for alumni activities which, I think, is usually just on Friday. I would like to have a street dance on Friday night,” she said. “We are talking about events for Saturday and Sunday like a barbecue and different things like that. We are definitely doing a parade that morning, and we have talked about a chicken barbecue on Sunday, but we haven’t firmed up those plans yet.” Mark Dunkelman’s Reunion of the 154th will be held during Old Home Weekend, Saturday, July 18 at the town center. Also on Saturday, St. Paul’s Lutheran Church is going to sponsor a carnival and have activities for kids. People have talked about house tours and cemetery tours several times but, Westfall said, nobody has stepped up and committed to the project. Westfall said they have decided to do a Bicentennial Calendar with old photos from the town. She said a couple of committee members have been working on that, so the project is gaining traction. “The hope is to possibly have them printed by Fall Fest, which would be awesome because you know how many people run through Ellicottville during that event,” she
said. “But, we still have to work out the details of printing, and we are currently looking for businesses that would like to do a sponsorship and place ads.” As with the Great Valley Bicentennial, a Pioneer Certificate program is underway for the Town of Ellicottville’s Bicentennial. Westfall said they recently announced the program on their historical society Facebook page that they are doing the Pioneer Certificates for the bicentennial. “Several people have already expressed interest and have sent their applications in for that. We have at least four already,” she said. “It’s a good program and it generated a lot of people to think about the history of the town and their family. “Sometimes when we talk about towns, we focus on just the founding people — the handful of pioneers who were here since day one and we stop there. But there are so many other stories to tell. When you read some of the history from back in the 1800s, you get the biographical sketches of prominent people and they don’t talk about the other people who settled the towns.” Being part of the historical society and cognizant that next year is the town’s bicentennial, Westfall said she is the one who got the “ball rolling” and is the unofficial chairperson for planning the event. “I started this, but I have always said it’s not about the historical society. It’s town-wide and I want as many participants as possible in this planning,” she said. “The more people we have with ideas, the more fun this is going to be. I want people to bring ideas, but also a willingness to take the lead in something. There is no end to great ideas, but they need to be implemented.” Westfall said even if somebody wants to be a part of the committee, it’s not mandated that they come to every meeting. But, she still needs to maintain communication with people if they can’t come. Planning meetings are held on a monthly basis; dates and times vary. The next meeting will be Sept. 10 at 6 p.m. at the Ellicottville Memorial Library, 6499 Maples Road. For further information, contact Westfall at 699-6201 or email her at daylight398@ gmail.com.

TIME lists Comedy Center among ‘World’s Greatest Places’
This is no joke: The National Comedy Center in Jamestown was named one of TIME magazine’s “World’s Greatest Places” in the publication’s Sept. 2 cover story, out Thursday online and on newsstands today. The National Comedy Center was selected as one of only “100 new and newly noteworthy destinations to experience right now” and one of only nine attractions to visit in the United States. This annual TIME list — culled from editor and expert nominations from around the world — recognizes 100 destinations that are breaking new ground, leading industry trends and offering guests an experience that’s unlike any other. As the TIME’s staff describes the list: “How does one measure the greatness of a place — in miles covered, dollars spent, or visitors captivated? Such metrics can play a part, but also important is something that many travelers aspire to experience: the sense that
one has stumbled upon the extraordinary.” “We are proud that the National Comedy Center has been selected by TIME – in a worldwide context – as a destination to experience right now,” said Journey Gunderson, National Comedy Center executive director, said the center is proud of the TIME distinction. “We set out to build a cultural institution that would do justice to the incredible artists and bodies of work it celebrates, and this global distinction affirms that it does,” Gunderson says. “This honor also validates what our guests tell us every day — that the National Comedy Center is a one-of-a-kind experience for anyone who loves to laugh.” TIME solicited nominations across a variety of categories, such as museums, parks, bars, restaurants, theme parks, cruises and hotels, from its editors and correspondents around the world as well as dozens of industry experts.

Then the publication evaluated each one based on key factors, including quality, originality, innovation, sustainability and influence. The National Comedy Center was selected last month by People Magazine as one of the “100 Reasons to Love America.” Earlier this year, it was voted a “Best New Attraction” by USA Today readers, ranking No. 2 out of 20 new attractions and selected as the No. 1 museum and No. 1 ticketed attraction in the country. This past March, Congress designated the center as the nation’s official cultural institution dedicated to presenting the vital story of comedy and preserving its heritage for future generations. Condé Nast Traveler called the center “one of the best museums in the country.” Visitors from all 50 states and nine countries have given the center a 5/5 rating on TripAdvisor, ranking among the highest in the attraction and tourism industry.

Ellicottville Town Planning Board discusses appointing new chair, vice-chair By Ginna Hensel The Ellicottville Town Planning Board met on Aug. 26 for a regularly scheduled meeting. Before discussing the new business scheduled on the agenda, the board took a moment to reminisce the old memories with Margrett Signore. Signore, or commonly known as Sis, was the longest-serving board member up until her recent resignation. Signore was also the chair of the board. Richard Dayton, who served as vice-chair with her, recalled Signore’s passion for serving on the board. Dayton took a moment to talk about Signore’s 30 years of service and all the good times they had together. Signore resigned because she is moving. The discussion of who would
now serve as the chairman and vice-chairman began among the board member. Sheri Barrera quickly jumped into the discussion and offered that Richard Dayton would be an appropriate fit for the chairman. Dayton, honored by the nomination, graciously accepted it and a monition was made to open discussion of appointing him to the chairman of the board. Dayton quickly turned around and opened the discussion to appoint Barrera as vice chairwoman. Barrera voiced her concerns about the possibility that she may have to miss a few meetings for family reasons. Fellow board members assured her that they would be able to work around it. A motion was then made to open discussions of Barrera to the position of vice chairwoman.
IN OTHER BUSINESS, the planning board discussed adding a zoning amendment to establish solar regulations. In May, a solar farm application was submitted to the board. The solar farm is for utility use. The board, receptive to the idea, found that there was not any regulation of solar farming in the zoning amendments. Without a specific amendment, a solar farm would not be allowed. The board opened discussions to begin processing a draft to establish a solar regulation zoning amendment. A committee was formed to oversee the discussion of the zoning amendment and has met successfully. The discussion is currently ongoing. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Ellicottville Town Planning Board is set for Sept. 23.

It’s back to school for Ellicottville students and staff By Megan Hartsell Student Reporter As summer comes to an end, Ellicottville students are reminiscing on an even more so enjoyable summer than in years passed, as well as looking ahead to a fresh start, one year closer to graduation. Now seniors, many of the class of 2020 spent their precious free time exploring colleges and analyzing different occupations. Simon Lin spent a week at Stevens Institute of Technology researching and learning about what to look for in a school. “It was a good experience to see what college is like,” Simon said. “I met a lot of people from around the country and got to talk to students about their college experience. I also explored different engineering careers and their purpose.” Sammi Van Wicklin, also a rising senior, spent her summer interning at Roswell Park Cancer Institute. “I studied head and neck tumors being treated with radiation medicine and the pain toleration with overdosed parotids glands,” she
Photo submitted As students and staff in Ellicottville return to class next week, some recently reminisced on what they did over the summer, including Madisyn Kilby who traveled to the Mediterranean and saw the Parthenon.
said. “My favorite part was meeting people from different schools, as well as the amazing mentors at Roswell.” With more knowledge and experience under her belt, Sammi is eager for the year to come. Some students ventured on once-ina-lifetime vacations, soaking up rays of sunshine and learning more about various cultures. Madisyn Kilby spent a week touring through several Mediterranean countries aboard a cruise. Certainly a highlight of her trip, Madisyn exclaimed that she climbed the Acropolis to the Parthenon, a hike
unlike any she’s taken before. “The food was very different than American cuisine,” she recalled. “I ate so much gelato!” The Rounds family enjoyed the last part of the summer on a cruise to Alaska. “We stopped in port cities like Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway,” said Gracie Rounds. “Coming so close to America’s last frontier gave me an incredible desire to continue to explore and travel places where many have not yet explored.” Teachers, like their student counterparts, also had a productive vacation. Cathie Nason,
ECS’s Business teacher, spent her summer preparing her children and animals for the Wyoming County Fair. “It was very time consuming getting animals ready and show clothes and supplies together,” Nason said. “My kids received several blue ribbons for their crafts and Gladiolus flowers. My daughter came in 2nd in her age group for showmanship with her heifers. Watching my kids show makes all the time worthwhile. It is great to spend so much time with my own children.” With the closure of summer comes the best time of year for some — fall sports season!
so I think we have the potential to be amazing this year!” she exclaimed. Although students are feeling mixed emotions about returning to school, many are eager to reunite with friends and classmates, for dances, sports games and more. However, re-adopting the school-year sleep schedule and managing piles of homework and responsibilities sounds less than appealing to most all of us kids. As Sept. 4 approaches, students and teachers alike have become aware that summer is truly over. It is time to gear up for another outstanding year at ECS!
On Aug. 19, ECS football, volleyball, soccer, cross country and swim teams convened for their first week of practices, known to athletes as “Hell Week.” As the first season without beloved Coach Neilon commenced, the Girls Varsity Soccer team quickly adjusted to the coaching styles of coaches Tammy Eddy and Katie Taylor. Elsa Woodarek, a sophomore on the team, foresees that since most of the team has played together for the better part of their lives, this season will be one for the books. “We have a lot of skilled girls that work really well together,

HOW TO BE AN ELITE PERSONAL TRAINER
By Kim Duke Being a personal trainer is not just a really cool job title, but it is also an amazing career choice. This is a job where you can really make an impact
on someone’s life and longevity, transform a client’s body and mindset, as well as, inspire them to be healthy and happy in all aspects of their lives. However, not all trainers are cut from the same cloth. Over the years I have worked under and along side of several different trainers. I would consider just a few to be elite in the industry, while the others are no more than number counters in sweats. So what makes a personal trainer elite?
Theses trainers are deeply passionate about their work and often take steps toward improving themselves, their craft and their knowledge base. Typically, they spend a great deal of time reading and working in the field with other professionals developing skills and background knowledge. They are certified by nationally accredited organizations that require continued education classes (CECs). An elite trainer looks
at these CECs as an opportunity to build their education and to learn new techniques. They strive to stay up with all of the latest research in the field that is constantly changing to advance themselves professionally. An elite personal trainer will do more than just train their clients. They consult with them as well. There is a special relationship that develops between a client and a trainer who works really well together, a relationship built on trust,
faith and commitment. The relationship will thrive and goals will be achieved as long as both participants pull their weight. Typically, trainees need to work on improving their eating and hydrating habits. Sometimes a client just needs that enthusiastic push to get them to see the benefits of all the extra hard work they are putting in. Nothing sounds better to a trainer than hearing that their client is so pleased with their experience that they are
now referring business. An elite trainer will take the extra time to communicate with their clients to make sure they are happy with the quality of their product. At Core Performance, we now staff four certified personal trainers that I, as well as numerous others, would consider elite. Our strengths are diverse but our passion is the same.

Ellicottville Town Board accepts resignation of Signore from planning board By Caitlin Croft
At the regular monthly meeting of the Ellicottville Town Board, it was reported that a solar committee met to discuss a Zoning Amendment proposal. The committee identified concern items and was supplied with examples of similar municipalities’ solar zoning regulations by Town Planner Gary Palumbo. The town board approved tasking the Planning Board with Zoning Board Member Cindy Dayton and Town Board Member John Zerfas to work with the Planning Board to draft an amendment. The Downtown Revitalization Grant that Ellicottville was a finalist for was awarded to Niagara Falls. Shared Services held their meeting and members were asked to come up with some new ideas. Mansfield has suggested sharing Code Enforcement duties with Ellicottville. Regarding the LED streetlight conversion project, the contract from National Grid has been received and the town is prepared to move forward. This investment in the lights will realize a less than two-year payback. The grant that funded the creation of the Engineering Department will finally be partially paid by the end of August. The Town Center project is 75 percent complete and the work is coming along as expected. There
was a meeting regarding the road that provides access to the Valley Village Condominiums. Town Attorney Kathleen Moriarty will draft an agreement to present that transfers maintenance of the road to the Homeowners Association. Town Engineer Niles Pierson is working on a drinking water grant that would have a project scope of $500,000 to $750,000. Pierson asked if the town could keep on the intern Brandon Moore for 20 hours a week with costs to be shared with the village. The wage is covered in the budget. The board approved Brandon Moore continuing in the Engineering Department. The town board approved the purchase of a 2020 Hyundai Front End Loader for $27,214. This has been budgeted for and will be delivered in 2020 and reflected in the 2020 budget. The box culvert project at Jed Lane and Sommerville Valley is complete. When the weather allows, the Highway Department has been patching roads. IN OTHER BUSINESS, the town board accepted the resignation of Margaret Signore as chair of the Town Planning Board. The town board thanked Signore for her decades of service to the town. The town board charged the Planning Board with recommending a new chair and vice-chair as well as authorized advertising for the vacancy.
A public hearing on the Tax Cap Resolution was set for Sept. 6 at 4 p.m. A public hearing for the Senior Citizen Exemption Law was also set for that time. The town board accepted the Court Audit and authorized a final order establishing a Water District. The board approved the purchase of a Weebly add-on with the town website so water and sewer funds can be collected from a cellular device. As of right now, the program only accepts online payments from a desktop, and with most wanting to pay from a phone there have been many complaints. This option by sharing the cost with the town has actually made it less expensive with a greater added value of the program. Town Supervisor Matthew McAndrew asked that 28 Parkside Drive is staked as the EVGV Trail needs to begin cutting. The EVGV Trail was also a finalist in a Blue Cross Blue Shield grant but was not the winner. McAndrew asked Pierson to get a Bryant Hill Cemetery Drainage plan in place by the end of fall. The Town of Ellicottville Bicentennial meetings have been going well. The official parade will be the third Saturday in July with a carnival and so much more. The next meeting of the Ellicottville Town Board is set for Sept. 18 at 6 p.m. at the Town/ Village Hall.

practitioner or agency. This year up to $3,000 is available from the fund to promote mental wellness in the county. The grant application can be accessed at cattfoundation.org/ grantseekers/grant-opportunities/. The first grant from the Mental Wellness Fund, made last year, supported

West Valley Demonstration Project recycles demolition debris for environmental sustainability
Cost savings continue at West Valley Demonstration Project (WVDP) as workers shipped the Utility Room Extension (URE) building’s large transformer offsite to be recycled. To date, the WVDP has received more than $14,000 in savings from their recycling efforts. Crews continue to separate clean materials during demolition projects that can be recycled, which allows those cost savings to be used to offset ongoing cleanup efforts. “Recycling is part of our commitment to be good stewards of the environment,” said DOEWVDP Director Bryan Bower. “It’s the right thing to do and helps save money for taxpayers and the government.” The URE was added to the Main Plant Utility Room in 1994 and 1995 to provide the additional power needed for the vitrification melter that was used to solidified 600,000 of highlevel liquid radioactive waste from 1996 to 2002. Like other activities at West Valley, the WVDP team undertakes comprehensive efforts to segregate clean areas and identify materials suitable for recycling.

Summer Arrange furniture, design rooms more easily Redesigning a room can involve several steps, from choosing a paint palette to taking down walls to buying new furniture. When it comes time to put the space back together, finding an appealing furniture arrangement or layout renovation that maximizes space efficiently can be challenging if it requires moving heavy pieces of furniture around. To make such tasks easier, homeowners can rely on a bevy of room-designing apps that enable one to manipulate a room in the digital realm. Some people have great spatial reasoning and can work out designs in their head or by plotting items on graph paper. But many homeowners may need a little extra help. By figuring out a floor plan, anyone can start laying out their furniture and other design elements. Room planners come in various forms, from free downloads available through popular furniture companies to pay-for-use, thirdparty software. The following are some the more popular room planners homeowners can utilize. · Amikasa: This app enables users to create room layouts using furniture and more from real brands. It features a walk-through mode so you can take a virtual tour afterwards. · Autodesk Homestyler: Brought to you by the company
that produces professional design programs for architects and designers, like AutoCAD, Autodesk and Revit, this userfriendly technology allows you to create 3D renderings and move around furniture, decorative items, appliances, and other elements right in the app. · Floor Plan Creator: Start with the basics by plotting out precise and accurate floor plans. This app enables you to create multiple floor rooms in 3D and get automatic figures for perimeters, walls and more. · Ikea Home Planner Tools: The free, easyto-use home planner tool from the popular furniture giant enables you to see how items from the store can look in your space - before you bring it home. The Kitchen Planner from the company also makes it simple to enter Ikea components and see how much the proposed kitchen design may cost. · Magic Plan: This is another popular feature-filled app for planning designs. The technology even allows you to take a picture of your existing room and create floor plans. · Planner 5D: This is an extensive room-design tool that helps you design rooms down to the smallest architectural details. It also can be taken outdoors for landscaping and pools, utilizing 3D graphics. · Room Scan Pro: This app draws floor
plans simply by having you hold the phone up to a wall. The software will then scan the circumference and plot out the requisite measurements. These are just a few of the room planners
that can make it easier to see what a finished design product may one day look like.
